That 11M represents decades of migration. It's not getting tripled with the flip of a switch.

Mexican heritage, yes. Mexican citizenship without US citizenship, very much no.

And 50 million never bothered to learn English? Here for decades? I have a bridge to sell you Dylan.

The bridge is that 50 million number that just appeared, yeah. Where did you get that?
Is that the number of people that don't have English as their first language? Almost all of that group does speak English.

The only way we’re going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants – the Dreamers and all of them, because our ultimate goal is to help the Dreamers but [also] to get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented there are here,”
Chuck Schumer, who is massively understating the number of illegals here, puts it at at least 11M. So yeah tens of millions is a realistic ballpark.
